Abstract

A steering column assembly (100) of the present invention includes a lower support bracket (102), an upper support bracket (104), and a jacket (106) disposed within and extending along a longitudinal axis (O) through the lower support bracket (102) and the upper support bracket (104). The steering column assembly (100) includes a yoke support housing (108) and a plurality of tubes (110) spaced from one another circumferentially about the longitudinal axis (O) and interconnecting the yoke support housing (108) and the upper support bracket (104). The invention includes a method (200) of fabricating the assembly (100). An advantage of the present invention is to provide the steering column assembly (100) that achieves a high section modulus, improved and predetermined stiffness characteristics, and improved packaging characteristics to hold various components. <IMAGE>
